The next big thing in the mobile communication and application industry is projected to be Telegram. Its the perfect Whatsapp alternative offering more features and flexibility which you get with Whatsapp. Telegram lets you send messages, photos and videos to people who are in your phone contacts (and have Telegram).

Telegram has been managing to get more than one millions users every day and the number is growing. It is no longer treated as come and go app as it is here to stay. Coming to Telegram distinguishing feature is its speed and security. They claim that its the fastest messenger. There’s also no limit on the size of the media you share in your chats. All the telegram messages are encrypted and stored in the server (not in the phone) and then there is an option for “Secret Chat“. You can initiate a secret chat with your contact and set up a self destructible time (after which message automatically gets deleted from servers) making it very secure from hackers.

Coming to the availability, Telegram is open and the developers behind the app have the API on their website up for grabs for other developers. What they have done is provided some official apps for “Android and iPhone”. For other platforms, developers have made use of the API’s and developed clients and apps for other platforms (like Blackberry, Nokia Mobiles). For Windows platform (mobiles), they have not released official app but these are listed on the Telegram website itself (which makes these unofficial apps very trust worthy as well).

Secret Chats: For those interested in maximum privacy, we’ve added Secret Chats, featuring end-to-end encryption to ensure that a message can only be read by its intended recipient.
